No need to. We have the most powerful country in the world already disinvesting them don’t we?Isn’t there a legitimate non anti Semitic reason to boycott products from settlements? I think there is. Right now we have the US government practicing complete disinvestment of Palestinians...no outcry.BDS can never confront their own anti-semitism.

Then boycott Arab product from the area as well,
moral relativism all the way ...
